Drunk Berries in Tres Leches Cake

55

This makes a delicious cake and it's beautiful as well. It is definitely sweet so the serving size needs to be small. DH definitely has a sweet tooth and he gave it a thumbs up. I'm sure he will be headed for some cake as soon as dinner is over. Made for Spring PAC, May, 2014.

haven't made this yet but appreciate being able to see how you converted it into a more weight and/or health friendly version.
as i need to eat better as i age, i've knocked off some of the sugar, even use agave nectar for sugar when i can figure it out and sometimes actually prefer it to sugar! agave nectar is a natural sweet in liquid form that does not raise one's glycemic level and whole wheat pastry flour can be substituted or blended in w/regular all purpose flour sometime too.
anyhow, just like seeing good recipes that have some saving qualities in them. oh, i wanted to say that i've been noticing that a lot of people comment on recipes being too sweet which is exactly what i keep running into in my own cooking and have started reducing the amount and no one notices the difference - i don't think they do. perhaps people are finding the food too sweet as we try to limit it's quantities. intense sugar, now that i've been off of it, now that i don't eat it soooo much, is much sweeter than it was before i went off of it so much. i'm not off, just less. thanks.
